Hi all I have a remote server (i.e SSH access only) which was incorrectly partitioned and I urgently need to get it up and running. It's got a 500GB HDD, but the PV is only 10GB big, so I can't add more LV's to to. P.S. This is on LVM, btw.
[root@nd11176 ~]# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

[root@nd11176 ~]# pvscan PV /dev/sda2 VG VolGroup00 lvm2 [9.97 GB / 0 free] Total: 1 [9.97 GB] / in use: 1 [9.97 GB] / in no VG: 0 [0 ]
[root@nd11176 ~]# vgscan Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while... Found volume group "VolGroup00" using metadata type lvm2
[root@nd11176 ~]# lvscan ACTIVE '/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00' [9.97 GB] inherit
So, my question is, if I extend the Physical Volume, what else do I need todo in order to add more Logical Volume's?
